no dough for dope (lyrics)

nobody ever wanna know why
not i
won’t know

you’d better leave before my feelings start to show
but don’t go
just hide

i don’t know
just do
i need your love
but i don’t need you

i don’t need you….

‘cuz there ain’t no room for romance
in this already fragile brain

to sum it up
i dig your fumes
but i figured you’d feel no pain

and there ain’t no money in contemplation
but i’d never before abstained

it’s that i need
got brains to feed

done died
we’re though
now i don’t know what to do

i think but i hardly speak
i sleep but i barely breathe
i hear but i never know
i climb right up but remain below

i want but i never need
i hurt but i rarely bleed
i see but i also show
i’m hidin’ out but they always know

they always know…

(so i) retreat to a sweet cocoon
i dare never leave this space
but the day will be coming soon
when i come right out and show my face

i’m dumb but pretend to know
i’m fine but pretend to bleed
i someday will find the cure
‘cuz i always know just what i need
